Who says the moose was clumsy? Perhaps Mooselim terrorism.

“Mind yoo, moose bites can be nasti”

- As a native of Sweden, I learned early how to stare back at moose.

Don’t stare aggressively.

The opposite is even worse.

Remember that you are entitled to the forest just like any stupid animal.

If a moose attacks (never happend to me though), hit it hard by the muzzle/snout.
